What are the two mysteries left by the resourceful Liu Bowen in history?

Mention of Liu Ji of the Ming Dynasty, that is, Liu Bowen, will naturally remind people of Zhuge Liang of the Three Kingdoms, because they are so alike, both military advisers and have the ability to predict the future. Moreover, they all left a prophecy book for future generations, which accurately predicted the major events of each dynasty. Zhuge Liang left a horse lesson before, and Liu Bowen left a pancake song. Perhaps the only difference between them lies in this: Zhuge Liang has three points in the world, while Liu Bowen is the only one. Therefore, there is a saying among the people: Three points in the world make Zhuge Liang unify the whole country, and Liu Bowen unify the whole country.

Liu Bowen, who claimed to know 500 years ago and 500 years later, is undoubtedly a mysterious figure, but what he left to future generations should be mainly these two mysteries, right?

The first mystery: Why did Liu Can Bowen predict the Oracle?

According to historical records, Liu Bowen's clairvoyance ability can probably be reflected in the following three aspects:

First, the danger on the battlefield was unpredictable, which saved Zhu Yuanzhang's life.

On one occasion, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't listen to Liu Bowen? With static braking? Persuade, personally to reinforce an feng, later fruit as Liu Bowen said, hongdu was besieged by Chen Youliang. Zhu Yuanzhang, who deeply regretted it, said to Liu Bowen: If you don't listen to you, you will make a few mistakes. ? So he led the troops to save Hongdu and launched a fierce water war with Chen Youliang on Poyang Butterfly. Zhu Yuanzhang personally bid, and Liu Bowen, who was guarding the left and right, suddenly jumped up and shouted, demanding that Zhu Yuanzhang change warships quickly. When Zhu Yuanzhang hastily changed warships, before he was seated, the original warships were smashed by flying shells. It can be said that Liu Bowen's prediction before he was in danger saved his life. "Ming history? Biography 16 records:? Fight Poyang Lake with Youliang, and meet dozens of times a day. Taizu sat on the Hu bed to supervise the war, and suddenly jumped up and shouted, making Taizu more interesting. Mao quickly moved to another place, sat there hesitating, flew to shell the old imperial ship and broke it. ?

Secondly, it can predict future wars and help Zhu Yuanzhang unify the whole country.

After Zhu Yuanzhang captured Jinhua and pacified Kuanmai, he heard the name of Liu Bowen for the first time. He did not hesitate to solicit money, but Liu Ji refused. After Sun Yan wrote two letters, he decided to go out. Actually, this kind? Out of the mountain? The way is also a mystery. Zhu Yuanzhang can't pay, others write to invite. Why? Is it to show your lofty feelings?

It shouldn't be like this. When Chen Youliang conquered Taiping and his power soared, most of Zhu Yuanzhang's ministers and generals stood out? Discuss surrender? Or? A copy? , only Liu Bowen? Keep your eyes open? , so Zhu Yuanzhang called Liu Bowen to the inner room for advice. Later, Zhu Yuanzhang broke Chen Youliang by meter, thinking? Reward the base with the enemy? , but it was rejected by Liu Bowen. What was the reason for the first refusal? Reactive power? , made a great contribution for the second time, but still refused to reward, which implies profound meaning. Maybe Liu Bowen came out to help Zhu Yuanzhang not for fame and fortune, but because he had figured out that Zhu Yuanzhang was? Destiny takes a hand? He just took it as his mission to help Zhu Yuanzhang achieve his imperial career. What about at the beginning? Song? , Zhu Yuanzhang? Come up from a distance? When, Liu Bowen? Where is Chen's fate, because he saw Mao? , that is to say, tell Zhu Yuanzhang that he is? Destiny takes a hand? .

Third, he didn't know the important events of the dynasty in the last 500 years, leaving a very accurate prediction handed down from generation to generation.

Liu Bowen's prophetic book is Pancake Song. It's also interesting to say. The names of famous predictions in history seem to be random. For example, Zhuge Liang of the Three Kingdoms loved divination before the horse went out to war, and his prediction was called "the lesson before the horse"; In the Tang Dynasty, Li stopped because of being pushed back, which is called "push back map". And Liu Bowen's "Cooking Songs" was named after meeting Zhu Yuanzhang and eating sesame cakes. According to Pancake Song?

One day, Ming Taizu lived in the Inner Temple and ate baked wheat cakes. He spat. Patriotic teacher Liu saw him, Mao covered him with a bowl and told him to go in. After the ceremony, the emperor asked. Sir, you know what's in the bowl. ? Kenai pinched his fingers, turned his head and calculated, saying: Half like the sun, half like the moon, once bitten by a golden dragon, this kind of food is also lacking. ? Open your eyes and be sure. ?

Zhu Yuanzhang witnessed the magic of Liu Bowen's prophecy. What about the descendants of the world? Ask Liu Bowen. The song of pancakes was formed in this question and answer. Liu Bowen's answer was full of mystery from the beginning. For example, Zhu Yuanzhang asked: Does Zhu Jiaan enjoy the world? ? Liu Bowen replied? The vast sky, my Lord has thousands of children and grandchildren, why ask more? ? This? Children and grandchildren? Quite mysterious: the Ming Dynasty died when it arrived at Emperor Chongzhen, the grandson of Emperor Wanli. This seems to be a compliment, but it is actually a pun, implying that the Ming Dynasty can only reach the grandson of Wanli, so Liu Bowen lamented that everything has a destiny, so why ask more. It can also be seen that Liu Bowen's wisdom neither offended Zhu Yuanzhang, but also answered his questions and predicted the future.

Liu Bowen, who won the gold medal from Zhu Yuanzhang, began to speak boldly. Therefore, the prediction of a series of important events in the future is in the question and answer between the monarch and the minister, such as the change of civil affairs, the eunuch's chaos, the hanging of Chongzhen, the entry of the Qing army, the shaving of the Han people, and the prosperity of Kang Gan. Finally, the famous prophecy book "Pancake Song" was formed. And look at the process of its formation, it is obviously impromptu, adding magical color to Liu Bowen's prediction.

Why did Liu Can Bowen predict the prophet? This is undoubtedly the biggest mystery in the hearts of contemporary and future generations. Judging from the history of China, there are only three sources of knowledge: one is innate, that is, born with God and born with knowledge, which is generally only reflected in ancient saints; Second, it is given by God or God, for example, it is suddenly handed down by people of God; Third, finish learning the day after tomorrow. For Liu Bowen? Prophet? The popular answer is the second one, namely? God gave it? .

According to folklore, Liu Ji once sat alone on the mountain and suddenly found four words on the mountain wall:? Mountains are the foundation? . This mountain is for Liu Ji. When Liu Bowen stepped forward, a stone door suddenly opened on the mountain. Liu Bowen went in. After entering another stone gate, he found a Taoist lying on a stone bed, pointing to a book. Liu Bowen stepped forward and saw that it was an art book. As soon as the Taoist priest turned it over, he asked, are you interested in this book? If you can recite the contents of the book tomorrow, I will teach you all the skills of mathematics. Because of Liu Ji's amazing memory, he memorized it the next day, so he got the true biography of this Taoist priest and became the god of prophecy.

The second mystery: Is Liu Bowen really dead? Or fake death?

There have been many controversies about the cause of Liu Bowen's death in later generations. There are three famous sayings: one is that he was poisoned by Hu; It is said that Zhu Yuanzhang instigated Hu to poison; When you say it's a natural death, you die. The first two statements have always been opposed, thinking that with Liu Bowen's ability to predict the future, how could he be killed? Liu Bowen's death is recorded in the Ming Dynasty: in March of eight years, the emperor personally wrote a letter to it and sent someone to protect it. Home, sick? He died this year 1 month at the age of 65. Ji was sick in Beijing, so he had to call a doctor and drink his medicine, and he had a fist-like thing in his stomach. After that, Zhong Cheng Tu Jie's head was just an anti-conspiracy, and he called his poison base deadly cloud. ?

In the folk, there is a legend that when Liu Bowen died and was buried, the Liu family was worried that someone would rob the tomb, so they built 36 tombs. On the day of the funeral, 36 coffins shuttled back and forth to confuse outsiders, and then they were buried in batches. According to this statement, Liu Bowen is really dead? Or fake death? Very suspicious. There are many people who confuse people with so many coffins and cemeteries. There is no money here, 320? Meaning, it's really hard to tell true from false.

So, are there 36 tombs in Liu Bowen? How much have you found now?

According to relevant records, Liu Ji's tomb, located in Xiashan, Chengxiling Village, wencheng county City, Zhejiang Province, has a piece engraved with? Liu Wencheng Cemetery, the founder of Ming Dynasty? Stone tablet, but what about this? Xiling? There was no monument. The owner of this monument is People's Republic of China (PRC) Liu Ji's 20th grandson Liu Yaodong. It is said that he is based on Ming History? One day in June 2006, the sons of Gong Lian and Zhong Jing were buried in their hometown Xiashan. According to records, this cemetery was found on the hillside of Xiashan Mountain in Xiling Village. At that time, the tomb had been occupied as cultivated land, and it was finally returned after many lawsuits. As there was no monument in front of the tomb, he had to rebuild it. So this? Xiling? Is Liu Bowen buried in the tomb? There is no textual research.

Except? Xiling? Others have found more than a dozen suspected places of Liu Ji's tomb in China. For example, in the tomb of Shima, Huangkeng Village, Xikeng She Nationality Town, someone found it? Ming Guo Kai Liu Wenchen Cemetery? Tombstone; Liu Jizhi's tomb was found in Huangtan, Xikeng, Qijiamiao and other places in wencheng county, but there was only a tomb without a monument, which is difficult to verify. Later, Liu Ji's tomb was also seen in Pingyao, Shanxi, Suzhou, Jiangsu and Jiangxi. However, some people suspect that these tombs are only memories of Liu Bowen, and the real tomb of Liu Bowen should be in Nantian Town, his hometown.

In fact, it doesn't matter whether Liu Bowen was really dead or feigned death at that time, because people are going to die after all, and even the cleverest people are no exception; As for his real tomb, which one is it? I don't think it's necessary to go into too much, because it's not important for future generations. What matters is the symbolic meaning it represents, that is, Liu Bowen has become one of the symbols of China culture, including his eternal predictions and many puzzles.
